Datang's free and easy concubine

Chapter 1449 One after another
Today, the outside of Xinghai City is strangely quiet. The Tubo people did not press up heavily, only a team of [-] people approached slowly, but stopped at a far distance.

It seems to be watching.

The soldiers on the city wall were baffled when they saw this scene outside the city. What's the matter?They were used to the Tubo people's painless siege, so they were very puzzled.

Xue Wanche couldn't help being startled when he saw the movement outside the city, and quickly said: "Duke, the Tubo people are going to retreat, right?"

Su Cheng held up his binoculars to observe, shook his head slightly and said, "It doesn't look like the formation is about to retreat. If they do, they will leave, and this is clearly to prevent us from sending troops. If they want to withdraw, then we can't wait for us to go out and chase them." , so it is estimated that they should have noticed that there is a large army returning to the division, so they are on guard."

Xue Wanche couldn't help but widen his eyes when he heard this, and said in amazement: "Shouldn't they immediately retreat when they notice that the army is returning?"

Su Cheng said with a smile: "Maybe they are very confident, confident to defeat the returning army, and then break through Xinghai City and capture me."

Xue Wanche, Li Yun and others all had incredible expressions on their faces. Is this self-confidence?This is arrogant, right?
Not just arrogance, it's just arrogance.

Li Yun looked at the [-] cavalry outside the city without any fear at all, and excitedly said, "Duke, do we just watch like this?"

Xue Wanche nodded repeatedly and said: "How can we look at it like this, since the British Lord and the others have come, shouldn't we go out and help them annihilate the Tubo people together?"

They have been looking forward to Daoxing Haicheng for so long, aren't they just looking forward to a hearty battle?
Now that the battle of encirclement and annihilation is about to begin, if they can only watch from the city, it would be too aggrieved.

Su Cheng smiled and said, "Of course we won't watch from the city. How can such a big battle be without us?"

Xue Wanche and the others couldn't help grinning when they heard this. They were so excited that they wished they could leave now and start the war.

Xue Wanche hurriedly said: "Duke, shall we send troops now? Defeat the two ten thousand troops outside the city first?"

After hearing this, Su Cheng waved his hands and said, "Of course not. The encirclement has not yet been completed. Now that the two ten thousand troops are defeated, why don't the Tibetans retreat immediately?"

Xue Wanche, Li Yun and others calmed down after hearing this, and had to admit that what the Duke said was indeed very reasonable.

The Tubo people used these [-]-man teams to prevent Xinghai City from sending troops. If they defeated these [-]-man teams at once, the Tubo people would have completely exposed their backs to the muskets. No wonder they didn't run away immediately.

Su Cheng smiled and said: "So, don't worry, everyone. You have been waiting for so many days, and you don't care about this day and a half. The most important thing now is to let the soldiers have enough food and recharge their batteries."

"The artillerymen and [-] infantry stayed behind to defend the city, while the musketeers were ready to leave the city."

The Tubo camp outside the city seemed a little quiet today, and the atmosphere seemed a little depressing. The soldiers of all armies were armed with swords and arrows, and looked like they were always ready to mount their horses and fight.

Songtsan Gampo also left the big tent, with a calm expression on his face, he was waiting for the return of the scouts.

This time he sent a lot of scouts before dawn, and all of them were one man and two horses, so they could search without any hesitation.

"Report! Qi Zanpu, I encountered Tang army scouts [-] miles to the north, found Tang army, I was in a hurry to come back and report, I am not sure which Tang army it is!"

Songtsan Gampo couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief when he heard that, he was sure that there was an army from the Tang Dynasty returning to the army, and his heart calmed down.

Now that Tang Jun is here, just defeat them.

However, even if he defeated this Tang army, there was not much time left for him to attack Xinghai City.

Moreover, the defenders in Xinghai City saw the battle outside the city and knew that Datang had not given up on them, so they would defend the city even more desperately.

Therefore, the plan to send troops to capture Su Cheng this time is likely to fail.

Thinking of this, Songtsan Gampo's heart could not help but cast a layer of gloom. This time the expedition can be said to be a steal.

Unexpectedly, Tang Jun actually returned to the teacher. Saamu bowed and said: "Zanpu, the last general is willing to lead the army in a battle, and he will definitely defeat Tang Jun. I will dedicate the head of Tang Jun's coach to Zanpu as a wine cup!"

Songtsan Gambo waved his hand slightly and said, "I'm still not sure which Tang army it is. Be safe and don't be impatient. Only by knowing your enemy and yourself can you win a hundred battles!"

"Even if Xinghai City cannot be breached, defeating this Tang army can also give Datang a warning. Compared with Datang, he dare not raise troops again."

Songtsan Gampo hadn't finished speaking when he saw cavalry galloping towards him, but was stopped by his personal guards at a distance.

Songtsen Gampo waved his hand and said, "Let him come over!"

"Report to Zanpu, I encountered enemy scouts thirty miles to the north!"

Songtsan Gampo couldn't help being slightly startled when he heard this, why are there Tang Jun's scouts in the north?
"Are you reading that right? How come there are enemy scouts in the north?" Songtsan Gampo asked suspiciously.

"The humble officer will never be mistaken. The humble officer even fought a fierce battle with the scouts of the Tang army, and injured several brothers. The humble officer can guarantee the head of the item, and the Tang army is approaching from the north!"

It is impossible for scouts to lie about such important military matters. Songtsan Gampo couldn't help but his face darkened when he heard this: "Could it be that two Tang troops returned to the division together?"

Saam mused, "Could it be that the Tang army split up? Or did their scouts spread to the north?"

Songtsan Gampo slowly shook his head and said: "Yesterday they confirmed through scouts that ours is attacking Xinghai City, how could they divide their troops?"

"Therefore, there is only one possibility. The two Tang armies returned to Xinghai City at the same time!"

"It's going to be a fierce battle!"

A group of generals looked at each other, and they all saw dignity in each other's eyes.The two Tang armies returned to the division, plus the defenders of Xinghai City, facing enemies on three sides. Even though they were proud of their bravery, they felt the pressure now.

Songtsan Gampo also felt very dignified in his heart. If two Tang armies came, it would be almost impossible for him to break through Xinghai City!
If one of the soldiers is still Li Ji's, it is a question of whether he can win.

After all, after so many days of fierce siege battles, the army suffered heavy losses and low morale, and the soldiers were also very tired.

So, at this moment, should we fight a peace or retreat?
Even Songtsan Gampo could not make up his mind to make a decision, and he would not dare to retreat just like that.

But if there is a decisive battle here, the chances of winning are not great. It is better to retreat temporarily and let the Tang army go deep before the decisive battle.
